Informative session about the important personality. Martin Luther King Sr. was an African-American Baptist pastor, missionary, and an early figure in the Civil Rights Movement. He was the father and namesake of the civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. King became leader of the Ebenezer Baptist Church in March 1931 after the death of Williams. With the country in the midst of the Great Depression, church finances were struggling, but King organized membership and fundraising drives that restored these to health. By 1934, King had become a widely respected leader of the local church. That year, he also changed his name (and that of his eldest son) from Michael King to Martin Luther King after a period of gradual transition on his own part. He was inspired during a trip to Germany for that year's meeting of the Baptist World Alliance (BWA). While visiting sites associated with reformation leader Martin Luther, attendees also witnessed the rise of Nazism. Whilst the BWA conference issued a resolution condemning antisemitism, the senior King gained deepened appreciation for the power of Luther's protest.

Informative session about the important personality. Sir Joseph John Thomson OM PRS was a British physicist and Nobel Laureate in Physics, credited with the discovery of the electron, the first subatomic particle to be discovered. In 1897, Thomson showed that cathode rays were composed of previously unknown negatively charged particles (now called electrons), which he calculated must have bodies much smaller than atoms and a very large charge-to-mass ratio. Thomson is also credited with finding the first evidence for isotopes of a stable (non-radioactive) element in 1913, as part of his exploration into the composition of canal rays (positive ions). His experiments to determine the nature of positively charged particles, with Francis William Aston, were the first use of mass spectrometry and led to the development of the mass spectrograph. Thomson was awarded the 1906 Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on the conduction of electricity in gases.

Informative session about the important personality. Chintopant Karve was born in Baroda. However, he was educated at the New English School and Ferguson College in Pune. He graduated in 1917 with a degree in mathematics. Karve's relatives had a branch in Bangalore and his contacts made the Chintopants aware of the Kannada language. Karve joined the company set up by Dr. Shri. Under Ketkar's hands, Karve learned the art of collecting knowledge, read a lot and studied. The essence of lexicography came to hand. I got into the habit of working regularly. The duo showed the patience and perseverance required to work in the Ketkari blueprint, so they became ‘lexicographers’ by working with the net. Karve's world was a mess, but he never lost his temper or let his work get in the way.
